Office in a box — what the post-COVID office looks like | Accounting Today
By now, some of you have already started to get back to your physical office, possibly part-time, or perhaps full-time. At the time I'm writing this, the pandemic seems far from over, though it appears we're slowly coming to some kind of equilibrium. But exactly what we wind up with is unclear at the moment, and as far as I can see, it's going to be a moving target for some time as we individually, and entity-wise, see what works and what doesn't.
But one thing has emerged clearly from this crisis, and that's the necessity of being able to perform client work and firm management and participation from pretty much anywhere.

Learn How to Manage Your Business's Finances Easily With This $45 Accounting Bundle
Accounting is a necessary practice in every successful business, and it involves way more than just tracking your expenses. Accounting includes recording your financial transactions for statements, determining your budget for business decisions based on forecasting, determining how much the products and services you provide should cost, and much more.
Large corporations employ entire departments of accountants, while smaller companies may have just one. However, if you run your own operation, you might not have the budget to spare for a bookkeeper, much less a CPA. That means you'll have to manage your company's finances on your own. Luckily, the Ultimate Financial Accounting Certification Training Bundle will teach you how. Each course in this bundle costs $199, but you can get all eight courses today for just $44.99.
Mental accounting is impacting sustainable behavior -- ScienceDaily
The spillover effect refers to the fact that we tend to justify one behaviour by another of our behaviours. "Someone who makes the effort to cycle to work every day will use this argument to justify, to himself or others, buying a plane ticket to go on holiday to the Seychelles. A possible intervention strategy to prevent this is to encourage people to create differentiated mental accounts using targeted messages," states the psychologist.
The rebound effect explains how actions can induce a negative energy balance when people fail to adapt their budgets to a new situation. For example, people who buy an energy-efficient car may feel inclined to use it more often, cancelling out potential energy savings. To tackle this phenomenon, the psychologists suggest informing people about the real energy costs of their new car so they can update their consumption budget.
